fMy invention relates to cosmetic containers and refers particularly to containers adapted for holding powder compacts and cosmetic sticks. y y Y One of theobjects of my inventionis a device in ywhich one, or more, powder compacts umay be carried in conjunction with ya cosmetic stick, or pencil, the. holder for the latter acting as a means for holding the compact 10 container in position for the use of amirror,

also carried by the compact container.

Devices of this character, should be small in size and should contain twov powder compacts and a cosmetic pencil, such as lip rouge 15 or eyebrow applications, the compacts must be easily accessible and must be protected from danger and a mirror is necessary forthe proper application of the several toiletpr'eparations. l u It is also desirable cles be combined in a single container. The device of my invention accomplishes all of the above, and other, desirable objects and possesses attributes of great convenience .25 and usefulness. Y Y

In a general way, my device comprises a container capable of containing one, or more, powder compacts, and one, or more, mirrors, i the handle of the container being adapted not Y .30 only for convenience of holding theV mirror,

but also as a means for containing, and carrying, a cosmeticpencil, all of which willA be evident upon a consideration of my specification and its accompanying drawings. v
